A/N: I've already uploaded this to Fictionpress Poetry, but I felt that this would describe Bellatrix, too, in a way. I own nothing, except, of course, this poem.

She smiles

It's sickening

She knows

But still,

smiles.

The screams

Echo

In her mind

The wind carrying

The helpless

(helpless)

howl

pounding

In her head.

It's summer -

that means

h o t -

but she's shivering

And it's definitely

out of f e a r.

Her hand hurts

It's bloodstained -

u g l y -

and that's probably why

(Probably).

And it hurts

And it's a distraction

And she's grateful.

It's horrifying

(Disgusting)

But she's addicted

It's a drug

A bug

An itch

A yearn -

But.

Still

(Disgusting)

Horrifying.

They didn't see

Listen

Hear

Understand

Me

She tells herself

But she knows

That that is not an excuse.

Look upon them

And

Judge

Them

Like they

Judged

You.

She smiles

It's sickening

She knows

But still,

smiles.
